Talk:Facebook Pages
From Facebook Developer Wiki
Stupid question: when you update a Facebook Page, does it result in a News Feed item?
How do developers create test pages?
[edit] enabling pages to add your application
The instructions on this page for how to enable your app to be added by pages are vague and unclear. I can see the button for enabling pages to add your app, but like this wiki says, that setting doesn't seem to actually do anything. When I go back to my settings page, the "no pages" radio is checked, and I can't add my app to my page. What is this "edit URL" that the wiki page speaks of that also has to be edited for this to work?
[edit] Inaccurate doc about Page admins?
This line:
Please note that actions that appear to be taken by a page are actually taken by one of the Page's admins on behalf of the Page.
Is no longer true, it seems to me, given that a Page can be created without an associated User (admin) account. Correct?
[edit] API calls do not work with pages
Looks like many popular API calls like photos.getAlbums do not work with FBPages. One would expect substitution of the uid with a pageid should allow the API call to function the same for a FBPage as it does for a profile. Turns out that API calls to pageid's return no result. I hope the Facebook team fixes this soon. 1181029451 08:47, 10 November 2008 (PST)
- It's a known issue that the photos.* calls don't work with Facebook Pages. See http://bugs.developers.facebook.com/show_bug.cgi?id=942. It's a non-trivial fix, and we don't have an ETA for fixing it at this time. Pete (563683308 18:12, 10 November 2008 (PST))
